I was working hard to learn more about the language I was using then. When I look back at that period, I think I enjoyed what I was doing but in terms of technical knowhow, I wouldn't change much. Of course I know more now than then but I walked a certain path and I enjoyed it. The process was part of being where I am now. So, I think I'm happy with it so far. What, I would like to have had since then: A good perspective on how the business functions. More empathy. I've learnt these over time and even in this case, I think learning these was part of life. I don't really feel like "I wish I had the chance to go back and change things". I just feel foolish about some things I did then but I acknowledge that at that time my level of maturity was different from now and even if I had more (relevant) information or ideas, I'd not have been ready to use them. Finally, I'd say that as long as you tend to reflect on what you do and where you want to go, you'll do fine. Conscious and intentional incremental improvements take you quite far on the long run. Good luck!
